[Suggestion]: Adding API or Function of Exporting/Importing Timetables #675

Hi. I usually play game with timetabling. Because there are first/last trains and rapid/local trains on a line, I use Microsoft Excel to make timetables. To do this, However, I have to type every times(ticks) to excel, which are just the result of trial run. And after calculating the times, I have to type calculated times to game, Manually. This procedure is very inefficient and there are a lot of chances to make mistakes. If there was some like "excel export/import" thing, It would be more convenient.

So I'd like to suggest to make API of timtables or some bottons like "Import from Excel" and "Export to Excel".

Thank you.

Luca Fiorini is doing some investigation/prototyping in this area: https://github.com/lucaFiorini/OpenTTD-patches, it may be worth looking into progress on that

Wow. It has been on progress! I haven't known about that. I'm looking forward to meet this feature in-Game! Thank you!
